For some of the younger folks, it is hard to over-state how big a win this was. UCLA was considered unbeatable. I still hate them....

Hire an overseas recruiter or service. Lots of possibilities.

We scored 105 points and actually fell from 16th on KenPom to 17th because our defense dropped from 60 to 74….

Try to run with the Cats…you die.
Try to slow the Cats down….you die.

Either way, Cocks die tonight.

Lets enjoy this day.

Just my opinion but would like to hear your thoughts! The style, play, and development of European players is taking over the landscape of basketball in my opinion. I can see in the next 3-5 years players leaving early to play overseas, get better training, make a little $$, then come back for college or the draft. The NBA has done a great job making this sport worldwide!! I can see this model taking shape sooner than later.

Cats -4.5 and O/U 155.5. The O/U is the lowest it has been in a while for a UK game. I guess I will stick with the trend and take the Over. Thoughts?

Coen watch is on

I just got an email from USC ticket office. They are requesting (USC) fans to all wear Black.
My son and I will be there in BLUE.

Quintin Simmons is a top-10 player in Ohio and he's visited UK multiple times, just putting out a top 6 which includes Kentucky.

Younger former teammate of UK signee Terhyon Nichols...

Has been elected to College Football Hall of fame. Nice long interview with him. Class guy

This guy played Euro ball. The game looks slow to him. The only two real mistakes he made Sat night were deliberate - the pullup on the rim and the elbow to the face.

He honestly looks as though college ball is kind of a joke. I know he needs to get in a little better conditioning. But trust me - he's going to play 15-20 minutes by March and frankly by then I think he should be starting. Did I say that with my outside voice?

All you need to do is re-watch the moment when he did the spin move and missed the dunk to realize what his game is all about. He can do everything. Opposing teams do NOT want Big Z on the block or anywhere near the paint, or behind the three point line, or at the top of the key, or guarding the inbounds...you get the idea.

Firing Adrian Griffin when he’s 30-13…wow

to last years UConn team? I remember that team having a few bugs and a lot of good guards.

Found this article about Stroud giving to a collective. Wonder if any former players of UK do?

Big Z is prepared in ways that AAU basketball could never hope to prepare these young bucks in the states.

He has been honing his skills and playing against men for years and years now. AAU is glorified pick up games.

He is going to have an immediate and lasting impact. There’s a reason he just made a debut the likes of which we’ve never seen…

CAUSE THIS AIN’T SH*T to that dude.
